It's cool but...It's a very well done app and hasn't crashed for me ... Yet. Though, I don't know what I'm going to use it for, I cant really see myself buying any of this art from them so I'll just enjoy it on my iPad until I delete it. 3 stars only because I don't have more of a use for it.

TerribleThe UI is utterly pointless. The circles do not move independently and it only serves to create a thoroughly confusing user experience. A simple grid would have been much less clever and much, much more informative. Once you select a collection there is a pointless title page that has a tiny button to 'play' the collection. This is a featureless slideshow with no zoom or metadata.

Good startThis app is beautifully done and has a great selection and variety of artwork to enjoy. I had some trouble with instability, but not as bad as some other reviewers. The content in this app begs for a real slide show option that repeats indefinitely and overrides the iPad's lock screen. Also some way to navigate through a collection without starting at the beginning and sequencing through it – that's when I ran into stability issues. I'd start at the beginning of my favorites collection, which is pretty large, and try to get to a picture towards the end. I'd try to go too fast and boom, the app would die. After that It would start at the beginning again. A thumbnail screen for instant access would be nice. The ability to create more than one Favs list would help to organize them.
